User:Wayne Decatur/Haloarcula Large Ribosomal Subunit With Azithromycin
From Proteopedia
Azithromycin is a 15-membered macrolide antibiotic of the azalide subclass. The structure of this clinically important antibiotic has been solved bound to the Haloarcula marismortui large ribosomal subunit revealing its mode of inhibiting protein synthesis[1][2].
The basic details of the Haloarcula marismortui large ribosomal subunit are described in its own entry while the structure of azithromycin (zithromax) and its interaction with the ribosome are shown below on this page.

Summary: Azithromycin, like other macrolides, binds in the polypeptide exit tunnel near its start the polypeptide exit tunnel inhibiting protein synthesis by blocking the progression of nascent polypeptides through the tunnel. The polypeptide exit tunnel is described here.
About this Structure
1m1k is a 30 chains structure of sequences from Haloarcula marismortui. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA. A version of 1m1k optimized for use online as described here is used on this page. You may wish to examine the basics of the subunit.
